Description

Black Box KVUSB USB to PS/2 Converter

Overview

The Black Box KVUSB is a compact adapter designed to bridge the gap between legacy PS/2 input devices and modern USB-equipped systems. This converter is particularly useful in environments where older, reliable PS/2 keyboards or mice must be integrated with newer computers or servers that lack native PS/2 ports. Its flashable firmware allows for potential future updates, ensuring continued compatibility. The KVUSB is ideal for scenarios requiring the use of specific PS/2 peripherals in a server rack, industrial control panel, or any setup where USB ports are at a premium or dedicated PS/2 connections are preferred for certain devices.

Compatibility

This adapter supports standard PS/2 keyboards and PS/2 mice. It connects to a host computer via a USB Type-A port. It is designed to be compatible with most operating systems that support USB Human Interface Device (HID) class devices, including Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Installation Notes

Simply plug the USB Type-A connector into an available USB port on your host computer. Then, connect your PS/2 keyboard to the green PS/2 port and your PS/2 mouse to the purple PS/2 port on the KVUSB adapter. The adapter is bus-powered, requiring no external power supply. Ensure the PS/2 devices are connected to the adapter before plugging the USB end into the computer to guarantee proper detection.
